Will Florida be the next state to grow a spine and pass a state law against illegal aliens, similar to the Arizona law? A Reuters article reports that “Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum on Wednesday proposed legislation that would toughen law enforcement measures against illegal immigrants in the melting-pot southeastern U.S. state. The proposal by McCollum, who is engaged in a tough election race as a Republican candidate for the state governorship, was certain to thrust Florida into the sensitive immigration debate that has become a hot political issue ahead of mid-term Congressional elections on November 2.”

It looks like some Republicans are finally waking up to the fact that being tough on illegals is a good way to win an election. We need to keep an eye on these politicians to make sure they stick to their word. Flip-flopping weasels like John McCain need to be weeded out in the primaries so we can be sure that we’re electing Republicans who are truly tough on illegals and not putting on an act.

The article notes ” ‘Florida will not be a sanctuary state for illegal aliens,’ McCollum, who was accompanied by state Representative Will Snyder, said in a statement that also gave details of the proposed law. The legislation would require law enforcement officials to check a suspected illegal immigrant’s status in the course of a stop, or a violation of another law. This goes beyond the existing situation in the state where officers are allowed to check for immigration status, but not required to.”

Now that would be putting teeth into the bill. If the police are REQUIRED to check on the legal status of everyone they pull over, then that will mean large numbers of illegals will be rounded up and deported every year, and a large percentage of illegals will flee the state just so they don’t live under a real threat of deportation.

In some so-called “sanctuary cities,” the cops are forbidden to say “boo!” to illegals.

The article continues “Florida, especially its southern portion, is a major U.S. migration destination for nationals from the Caribbean and Latin America, making it a cultural and racial melting-pot.”

Sounds more like a cesspool to me. Increasingly desperate states and cities, facing bankruptcy due to the Brown Burden, will simply pass more and more of these laws. Obama has foolishly intervened against the immigration law, SB1070 in Arizona. He’s foolishly told the whole American public that he won’t enforce immigration law right before the November election and that he’ll defy the Tenth Amendment and obstruct any states that try to stop the flood of parasites.

McCollum is a professional politician who has never shown any previous concern about mexican invaders to the best of my knowledge. Everyone who has mentioned this to me locally has pretty much dismissed it as an election stunt. I hope I am wrong but I believe as soon as McCollum's arse hits the governor's throne he will forget all about the illegals.
